The truth about self-care, what is it and why does it matter!

Self-care is the new black!

Self-care is a term that you will have undoubtedly seen in the media A LOT recently. That’s because as our awareness around the importance of good mental health improves, more of us are talking about how we can look after our physical and emotional health. Consequently, discussions about self-care are on the rise – this can only be a good thing!

Why does it matter?

The benefits of self-care are well documented and rather intuitive. After all good self-care leads to happiness and when we are feeling happier we can be better versions of ourselves.

What you may have read less about though is what self-care actually is. That’s why this session is all focussed on the practicalities of self-care. We answer questions like: What is self-care? How can you identify ways to introduce it? and, What are the true benefits that it brings to you and those around you?
